Indoor Rowers

WRIC Qualifying Times

Concept2 provides the airfare for up to four competitors from each of the 18 official satellite regattas of the World Rowing Indoor Championships based on published qualifying times. Qualifying times and adaptive qualifying times for the 2018 World Rowing Indoor Championships are listed below. In the event that a given regatta has more than four qualifiers, the satellite regatta organizers decide who is selected for the trip. Concept2 has no role in this decision process.

These qualifying times are not for entry into the World Rowing Indoor Championships; they are to establish eligibility for US and Canadian rowers to have Concept2 provide their airfare to the 2018 World Rowing Indoor Championships.

Qualifying Times

Note: "O" is for "open" weight, "L" is for "lightweight". Open weight was referred to as "heavyweight" in the past.
